Prawn and Broccoli Curry with Quinoa

A couple of days later I tried quinoa again in a kind of curry, and again I enjoyed it! I think the key for me is to mix it in rather than have it as a side dish.

Prawn and Broccoli Curry with Quinoa
(Serves 4)

 

2 small heads broccoli, cut into florets

250g quinoa
1 tbsp oil
350g raw prawns
2 tsp medium curry powder
½ tsp salt
1 can coconut milk

 

Bring a pan of water to the boil and cook the quinoa according to package instructions adding the broccoli florets for the last 3-4 mins. Drain and set aside.

 

Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the prawns and cook for 2-3 mins. Add the curry powder and salt to the pan and continue to cook until the prawns are almost done.

 

Add the quinoa, broccoli, and coconut milk to the frying pan. Heat while stirring for 3-4 mins until the mixture is hot and the prawns are completely cooked.
